I am looking for advice regarding what to expect during this period of taking the antibiotics, and what I should do from here. Is 3 weeks enough with the EM rash, and symptoms already presenting? Any...
Bellyfull and Silly Sheep: I had a successful doctors appointment with my new doctor. He was not on the list of local LLMD's for Downeast, Maine, however I am fully satisfied with the outcome. He was...
This EM rash (im still assuming it is) started out a very thin red circle around the bite the day after removal. Each day it has gotten thicker, but no multiple rings. Just the one with bruising on...
Thank you ALL; Silly sheep, Bellyfull, Traveler, Lymiegirl, Lyme pickle, Girlie and Sarahm620. I will let you all know how my doctors appointment goes today. Hopefully no terribly bad news....
